    That was so very interesting John.
    As a crew member I’ve only entered a harbour at night once, Chichester Harbour. The skipper was newly qualified and I must admit I found it a bit stressful as he did too.
    However you explained this really well as you always do, many thanks

    Very nice. I think the best planning is when you incorporate safety first. I know that I would have to cut short activities in order to be back at the marina before dark, but that is just me. Well done sir!

    Love these "How To" videos.
    Im sure the light was needed for the video, but can't help wondering how your night vision was kept as every so ofter you get a nice light burning into your eyes....
    Well done Capt.

    Add some off-road lights to the front of that thing and light up in front of you. I don’t see how folks drive boats in blind.

    Unlit obstacles at night are TERRIFYING. I thought i saw something out my peripheral once... Waited a long time then my imagination thought i saw a body hanging off a crucifix... Actually just managed to go on the same bearing as a line of pots. I security'ed them because unlit at night near a port entrance could foul up somebody (or indeed, me!)

    Why is the camera on you instead of showing the lights while you're talking.

    And make sure you don't have someone shining a torch in your face at the helm.
